we're learning more about the crash of a u.p.s. cargo jet this morning in birmingham alabama. >> birmingham's mayor says just two people were killed the pilot and co-pilot of that air bus. rick jackson of our birmingham affiliate is at the scene. rick, good morning. >> reporter: yes we're about half a mile away from the actual accident scene here. the reason why is because officials early on block the entire perimeter off because of the explosions going off. that happened just before 5:00 a.m. a lot of the fire officials were on deck for this. and it took them a while for them to contain that fire. that fire was reignited. so they pushed everyone back. we have confirmed from mayor bell of birmingham here that two died. those two were the pilot. he also said some debris flee on to some houses. we're just blocks away from a large residential area. no injuries are reported in that regard. we spoke with the resident who was out walking his dog, describing the scene as a

volcano erupting. luckily, everyone as far as the residents are all right. two lives were lost here this morning in that crash. charlie, norah. >> rick jackson, thank you. word minutes ago from egypt. the interim president has just declared a month-long state of emergency. >> it comes after this morning's deadly confrontation between security forces and supporters of ousted president mohamed morsi. and we have learned a british tv news photographer has been killed this morning in the violence. clarissa ward is tracking developments from london. clarissa, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie and norah. this is a moment everyone had been dreading and so many had been desperately hoping to avoid. security forces have launched an all-out offensive to push those pro morsi protesters out of though two camps and as many had predicted, it is quickly turning into a bloodbath, with the number of dead and injured continuing to mount. parts cairo look like a war zone this morning.

as clashes between morsi supporters and security forces quickly escalated. egyptian police pushed into the carves early scamps early this morning with bulldozers firing tear gas to disperse the protesters. live gunfire crackling through the air. cbs news producer alex ortiz was able to gain access to a field hospital in one of the camps where the dead and injured have been pouring in. >> the floors and the walls of the field hospital are slick with blood. the sound of automatic gunfire is unrelenting. as government snipers fire at the only one still open there's a constant stream of dead and wounded coming out. the youngest i saw was a boy no older than 13 years old. >> reporter: within hour they managed to disperse the sit-in at nadha square outside cairo university. it's the second much larger haba

camp that poses another challenge. they have been camped for months despite repeated warnings from the military-backed government they should leave. we interviewed this muslim brotherhood spokesman before the operation began. >> we are unarmed civilians here. they're the ones with the guns and the tanks. the only thing we can do is stand our ground and not run away in fear of the military might or brutality of the police station and we will stand our ground. >> and it's that conviction of the muslim brotherhood that willingness to stand their ground in the face of overwhelming force that has so many people concerned that this death toll is only going to rise. i'm reminded of my interview with senator graham last week who told us we know how this movie ends and that's the real concern here that this is the tip of the iceberg, and that violence is going to continue to spread across the country. >> i was thinking of that prediction too clarissa thank you.

the example of a one-stop round trip flight from new york to houston. the american airlines fare comes up as $1,467. its merger partner cost just $575. if the two airlines become one, the lower fare disappears. in a february interview on "cbs this morning," us airways ceo doug parker shut down the idea of a merger causing higher prices. is this going to mean higher prices for me when i want to travel? >> the answer's no. fortunately, we have two airlines that are highly complementary complementary, not very much overlap at all. >> reporter: only 12 nonstop routes in which they overlap. a government accountability officer report says 1,665 routes they serve could ultimately be affected by less competition and higher fares. daryl jenkin who consults for the airline industry predicts the airlines will prevail in their challenge to the lawsuit. >> i assume they're going to win, they'll win very soon so i

expect this merger to close by the end of the year soon. >> reporter: will they win without making concessions? >> they will have to make concession concessions. >> reporter: the companies hoping the merger would make them a stronger competitor on the west coast. now looks like they'll have to do some horse trading and make serious conditioncessions if they're going to convince the federal government to settle the lawsuit. investors are watching apple stock rise this morning. market value spiked by some $13 billion. it happened after investor carl icahn made a big announcement. jeff glor is with us. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: charlie, good morning. earlier this week icahn enterprises told us to keep an eye on the twitter feed. didn't take long to find out why. on tuesday he said he bought a large chunk of shares in apple because he believes the company stock could be in much better shape. carl icahn is no stranger to the street. he's taken big stakes in companies ranging from yahoo! to

16-year-old is apparently describing her week-long ordeal in an online chat room. ben tracy is in los angeles. good morning. >> charlie, good morning. in this online chat room hannah spends a lot of time talk about teenage stuff,er favorite music, favorite color. but she also spends time talking about her week being held captive by dimaggio. she posted pictures about herself and answered several questions about james lee dimaggio. why didn't you run one person asked. he would have killed me hannah respond responded. did you think anyone was looking for yu? >> i thought my mom would be the first person looking for me. but anderson did not know that her mother christina and 8-year-old brother ethan had been found dead inside dimaggio's home in san diego. asked why she went there, she

said he told us he was losing his house because of money issues, so we went up there one last time to support him. he tricked us. >> do you know why he did it. because he's psycho she said. we reached out to the san diego and los angeles sheriff's department. it appears to be authentic because she posted pictures of herself and had conversations before she was kidnapped. she then went silent for ten days an read appeared online monday night. anderson would not say whether or not dimaggio raped her during her time in the idaho willeddaho wilderness. she said she remained calm because she didn't want him to kill them. are you happier they shot him or would you have wanted him to have life in prison. shot him. he deceived what he got. she showed a picture of her

recently painted nails, pink for her mom, blue for her brother. >> they say they're aware of this online q & a. she said she men. mel mellody hopkins has more. good morning. >> good morning. >> we're learning that female executives are earning far less than their male counterparts. why the gap? >> the pay is lower for women. we make less because we negotiate less and we negotiate

less because when we do negotiate, there's a sense that it will backfire on us. men when they ask for more money, it's seen as assertive. when women do that we're seen as self-centered. it affects our likability and our competency. >> even for women at the top. that's surprising. >> it's no different. i've had some very high-level women tell me they too, didn't go in and negotiate. they were excited about the opportunity they were getting especially because there were so few at the top. >> what goes on in compensation committees where you have served? >> well, one of the things about comp committees now is because the s.e.c. has really mandated a lot more transparency around comp and given shareholder as say, there's a lot more transparency and objective tag tors being considered. so the pay is anchored to

performance. it might be earnings going up or revenues going up. anything that is very clear showing that the executive is being paid for serving the shareholders. now, the come committees also take other things into consideration like how are other people in the industry being paid. and sometimes i call that an arms race. because one person gets a bump in a related company and committees look at that data and say should we bedoing the same thing. there are lots of factors that are considered but it's still moved more and more toward transparent and more objective, less objective. >> mellody, areally studies showing what's the

at is not insignificant. i think back to the financial crisis. $840 billion was injected into our economy. we're talking big numbers. this is not just about helping a woman or her family. we all win in this scenario. >> i think we should take time to con great late you on the birth of a new daughter. >> thank you. >> and where did you get the name everest? >> everest is based on the son of a very close friend who was a friend of yours, too, charlie. >> good to see you, mellody. it took him six years and he didn't have a single permit. now he's supposed to tear it down. seth doane shows us construction takes more than money. it takes connections. >> reporter: there are rooftop gardens, and then there are rooftop mountains at least in this part of beijing, this

we are learning more. security forces have launched an all-out offensive to push those promorsi protesters out of the two camps. as many have predicted, it is quickly turning into a blood bath. a deadly end to a standoff. a mentally unstable man took three people hostage. >> he bought a large chunk of stocks in apple. hannah anderson says she didn't share anything in this form she hasn't already told the authorities it doesn't matter what level we seek. the pay is lower for women. we make less because we negotiate less. china's state television and local media have reported that his owner says he will tear down his fake mountain. >> i don't think you can use healthy and artificial sweeteners in the same sense. their heart warming story sounds almost too good to be true. >> i am going to continue

lives. initially, we thought that the debris field was contained within the area. now, we are hearing there are several homes with debris on top of the roof. >> the fire department was able to get that blaze contained? >> absolutely. the men and women of the birmingham fire department are trained ex ten sives on how to handle events such as this. they always act in a professional manner. our concern was whether or not anyone else was injured by the crash. a perimeter was set up. we are having to expand that now that we know some debris fell on houses in the neighboring community. >> reporter: that residential area is just a mile away from this. a lot of them are shaken up. a lot of them thanking god

everything turned out okay. the government has declared a month-long state of emergency. it came hours after security forces moved in on protesters that support mohamed morsi. fighting has left dozens dead including a photographer for britain's sky news. clarissa ward is in london. good morning, norv aandah and charlie. security forces launched an out-out defensive for supporters of ousted president morsi have been camping out for over a month. they pushed into the camp with bulldozeers and armored vehicles. they were firing tear gas. the situation quickly escalated into bloody clashes with live ammunition being used. the smaller camp was cleared pretty quickly. the battle is ongoing at the larger of the camps.

alex ortiz was at the field hospital. he said there was blood all over the floor and he saw at least one child that looked to be 13 years old among the dead. we are now hearing reports of morsi supporters attacking police stations and setting fire to churches and other parts of egypt. the concern is that the violence is spreading and that the casualties will continue to mount. charlie, norah? >> what's the estimate of the number of fatalities. >> it depends which side you are listening to. the muslim brotherhood says that hundreds have been killed. one of their leaders calling this a genocide. saying that only 15 people have been killed. although, that does seem to be a ridiculously low number. >> the security forces include some forces from the army. >> that's right. the army has now stepped in to help the police with the final clearing operation in the heart of that compound. thousands of supporters have been kept out and where the

1500 routes would be affected. why such a huge discrepancy. >> they only overlap on 12 nonstop routes. that was their public position. if those 1665 connecting routes -- by the way, in the airline business we live on connecting routes. that makes the difference. they could be subject to higher fares and less competition. if this merge he goes through those four american, united delta and southwest, would represent 80% of the total u.s. market and in some cases, like in the washington d.c. area more than 63% of one airport alone, washington/reagan. usairways says we will fight them. how is this going to play itself out? >> it is not going to play itself out this year. probably next year. it doesn't say the merge he is not going to happen. it may be completely reconstructed. now, the horse trading begins.
